Fort Lauderdale Gate Pros provides professional swing gates in Fort Lauderdale, FL for residential and commercial properties across Broward County. Swing gates are the classic entrance and still the right choice on any Fort Lauderdale property with enough driveway to give them room. They cost less to install than a slide gate, there is no track to keep clear of sand and salt, and a matched pair of leaves opening ahead of you is simply a better arrival than anything else you can do to a driveway. The constraint is geometry and it is worth being blunt about it before anyone falls in love with a design. A swing leaf sweeps an arc equal to its own width, so a twelve-foot leaf needs twelve feet of clear, level ground to travel through. On a shorter lot an in-swing gate can end up stopping against a parked car and an out-swing gate can end up over the public sidewalk, which no inspector will pass. That is why we measure driveway depth and setback before anybody talks about pickets. Slope is the other thing people underestimate, and in this city it is usually the crown of a driveway rising away from the street or the fall toward a seawall. Any rise toward the house will foul an in-swing gate partway through its arc. The honest fixes are rising-hinge hardware, a shorter leaf pair, moving the gate line back to a flatter spot, or accepting an out-swing where the property line allows one. What we will not do is hang a gate that scrapes and hope you stop noticing. Dual swing is our usual recommendation over one wide leaf, and in a hurricane zone the reasoning is structural as well as practical. Two leaves halve the arc, halve the hinge load and halve the wind area each leaf has to carry. Hardware is where a swing gate lives or dies here: heavy welded or bolt-on hinges sized to the leaf weight, stainless or hot-dip pins so nothing seizes in salt air, posts set in concrete deep enough to resist the overturning moment of a long lever arm, and adjustable hinges so the gate can be re-plumbed years later without cutting anything. For automation we fit articulated or linear arm operators on standard installs and underground operators where the client wants no visible hardware on an ornamental entrance, always with photo eyes on both faces of the arc and entrapment protection configured and tested to UL 325 rather than left at factory defaults.
With 15+ years of experience, our licensed and insured team brings the right materials and equipment to every job — wrought iron and ornamental steel fabrication, marine-grade powder-coated aluminum, cantilever and roller slide gates, LiftMaster, DoorKing and FAAC operators, Class I-IV operator classifications, UL 325 entrapment protection — and backs the work with a written workmanship warranty. We serve Fort Lauderdale and nearby communities including Pompano Beach, Oakland Park, Wilton Manors, Lauderdale-by-the-Sea.

Materials, equipment and how we do swing gates
The difference between swing gates that lasts and swing gates that gets redone in three years is almost always preparation and materials, not the finish you see on day one. We work with wrought iron and ornamental steel fabrication, marine-grade powder-coated aluminum, cantilever and roller slide gates, LiftMaster, DoorKing and FAAC operators, spec them to the job instead of to the invoice, and write the material grades into the free estimate so you know exactly what you are buying.
Every Fort Lauderdale job runs the same way: site walk and measurements, written scope and fixed price, protection of the surrounding area, then the work itself with a daily clean-up. 15+ years of gate work in Broward County means we have already met whatever your property is going to throw at us — awkward access, older construction, an HOA with opinions.
